Holy crap!

PG did seem to be talking more freely than normal on Talk Sport. The Hamann thing was one thing, but I was more shocked that he just buys whoever the manager tells him to. At least the statue got put up just in time, if true.
The players you fail to sign never lose you any money.

no reason at all why we should believe him - i just thought this was the place to sign rumours about transfers - and thought it was reasonable enough to extend that to include key staff movements...

we could wait until everything was announced/confirmed by the club - but where would be the speculative fun in that??

(the manning that he tweets to used to be on this forum before getting banned...)

I don't believe him. Sunday afternoons can be quite boring.

Not calling you into question for posting, Bish but why would there be an emergency board meeting other than to release funds? I can't see DF being sacked considering that it took over 18 months for us to give Coyle the elbow.

If we got rid of Gartside would that mean more money for players? Who would be chairman then?
Pfffft.

dunno - there could be any number of reasons for an emergency board meeting - if, indeed, there is one!

it might be 1+1=9 it might simply be that Garty is fed up of the abuse he gets on twitter - so has done the obvious and sensible thing - and closed it...

Calmo bish, I was merely trying to ascertain the trustworthyness of the source. I know who Chri Manning is aswell. I must admit I'd be f*cking flabbergasted if Uncle Ted did that, he seems a fairly patient man. On the other hand, I'm sure he's also privately sick to the back teeth of hearing chairman and manager making promises they can't keep.

Garty's 61.

Having a twitter account at that age is the equivalent of him doing wheelies on a Raleigh Chopper on his driveway to impress the kids.

or perhaps eddie has gone senile and is about to appoint himself player-manager and chairman all in one?

Statistically I don't think he could do any worse.

Dawson unused sub again, West Brom bottom. Lugano on bench but presumably ahead of him in pecking order.
I genuinely think he'd be better off playing every week, even for a shit championship team!

Isn't it more likely that that is what the alleged emergency board meeting was all about? If indeed there was one!

What a confusing day. Who's doing all the sackings if there's no Garty and according to one source (I think you posted earlier) no Freedman. :-)

I know you're "only" the messenger

indeed - if, indeed there even was one...

still - even (as is still most likely) - nowt happens at all tomorrow - it's gives a frisson of expectation that summat might change!
